The "about the manual" section is actually slightly outdated.
The documentations are still written using the DocBook
(http://www.docbook.org/) markup but we are using our own rendering
system these days, called PhD (see
http://no.php.net/archive/2007.php#2007-10-03-1 &&
http://doc.php.net/wiki/phd).
I honestly cannot recommend using PhD to render anything other than
the php.net docs quite yet, so you are better of using the DocBook-XSL
stylesheets (http://docbook.sourceforge.net/).
